Chapter 15 - Friends

Eiji is a pretty smart kid, so it's understandable if many friends ask him for help to teach or re-explain subjects they don't understand, or ask for an example so that they understand better when working on the exam questions that will be run, like Shuta and also Jiro.

Ding ... dong ... dong ... dong ... dong ... ding ... dong ...

The sound of the school bell that rang, indicating that the learning and teaching activities at their school had ended, hearing and realizing that the study time was over would certainly make the students who were focusing on staring at the blackboard and the teacher who was explaining were now talking to each other after the teacher stopped learning and teaching activities, the teacher also invited his children to get ready to clean up the class and then go home.

However, it wasn't with Eiji who had to meet Shuta and Jiro at the school library, they couldn't go together because they happened to be indifferent classes and that's why they decided to make an appointment in the library after they finished with their class pickets.

"Eiji-Kun!" a call made by a girl who was now standing in front of him made Eiji turn to look at him and slightly tilt his head upwards as if responding to a call from the girl.

"Yes?" Eiji asked the beautiful girl who was now walking towards him.

"Eum… that, are you busy today, Eiji-kun??" the girl asked him, making Eiji frown in confusion and then he shook his head to answer the question the beautiful girl asked.

"Not really, I will teach Shuta and Jiro to prepare for the repeat of the exam they will do next week" Eiji explained to the girl, "What's the matter, Nanase-san?" said Eiji turning to ask Nanase, a beautiful girl who is now standing in front of him.

"Ah! That… may I join in studying? Because I think… I'll also be repeating my math class next week." Nanase explained to Eiji who was now nodding his head in response to Nanase's request.

"Certain! You can also bring your friends if you feel uncomfortable with us…" continued Eiji to Nanase who now looked very happy to hear Eiji's approval, Nanase immediately nodded her head.

"Thank you, Eiji-kun!" Nanase said to him, and from the look on Nanase's current expression, Eiji felt that the girl looked very happy when she found out that she was allowed to study together with Eiji, seeing that Nanase looked happy made Eiji nod in response to a sweet smile and a thank you. love from Nanase.

"Then, I'll be waiting for you in the library along with the others," said Eiji to Nanase who was now nodding his head, and Eiji finally left first after Nanase nodded his head in agreement.

Eiji walked towards the library and then he turned to look at Shuta and Jiro who were already there and waiting for Eiji's arrival. When Shuta found Eiji already in the library, Shuta raised one hand to signal that the two of them were at one of the tables they had booked in advance, and Eiji caught that and immediately approached the two.

"Would you mind if I brought someone to study together here too?" Eiji asked Shuta and Jiro after he sat in front of the two who were now looking at each other and frowning.

"Who really is going to study with us, Eiji?" Shuta asked Eiji who then finally told him who would be coming with the two of them.

"Eh?!! Nanase-san asks you for help too, Eiji???" Shuta asked in a whisper to Eiji who was now starting to open his math book and nodded his head to answer the question asked by Shuta.

"Uah! Great!!" Jiro shouted to Eiji, and Jiro's loud shout seemed to annoy the readers in the library, so they were reprimanded with the words 'SSSTTTT!!!' by the many people who were in the library.

Realizing his stupidity, Jiro immediately covered his mouth with his palms, and then at the same time, he received a quite painful slap that Shuta gave him with the intention of reprimanding him for what Jiro did.

"Ooooh! I'm sorry, … I can't believe it… Nanase-chan is a pretty girl with a lot of fans!" Jiro whispered to the two, Jiro even grimaced in pain, at this time Jiro turned to look at Eiji and turned to look at Shuta, with his right hand still rubbing the head that Shuta had touched earlier. He turned to the two of them to see the response and reaction that was issued by both of them.

However, the response Jiro received from Eiji was only a slight shake of his head. In contrast to Eiji, the response given by Shuta was highly expected by Jiro, and that response was a nod of the head to agree with Jiro's words at that time, and that made Jiro feel happy. Jiro turned his head back to look at Eiji with a wide smile showing his neat teeth.

"Eiji-kun!" a call that sounded in the ears of the three, made them turn their heads at the same time and look at Nanase who came alone, with a textbook and math notes which she was now hugging in front of the three men who were now staring at her presence.

"You didn't bring your friends, Nanase-san?" Eiji asked Nanase who was now shaking his head.

"I don't want them to bother you, because I don't think they have the same interests as me right now." Nanase's answer explained a reason why she deliberately didn't bring her friends there, and that reason was finally understood by Eiji who now nodded his head and invited Nanase to sit down and join them.

"Okay ... we will start with the material that was discussed by Mr. Yuta yesterday ..." said Eiji to the three who are now starting to pay attention and open their respective notebooks.

That's how Eiji socializes with his school friends, he will gladly teach his friends, and if his friends don't understand what has been explained then Eiji will help him when he also understands the lesson. That is the point that supports people around Eiji to approach him and also make friends with him.
